Workplace Investigations - Law Firm of Waters, Kubik, Cassens

An Impartial View

When an employee submits a workplace complaint, this complaint may trigger a duty on the part of the employer to investigate the allegations set forth in the complaint and take prompt remedial actions to correct employment practices that may be unlawful. By conducting an impartial and prompt investigation, an employer may resolve the internal conflict and, potentially, avert liability.

Employees are a valuable resource, but when situations are mishandled they can be costly. Let us help you protect your resources and avoid costly mistakes.
